take charge

You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self, which is being corrupted by its deceitful desires; to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.

- Ephesians 4:22-24

 

Social media is such a challenge to maneuver.

People get all up in the trees over half-truths and false information and boy howdy if you try to point out facts to some people, they completely shred you.

Then there are the folks out there that consistently post the “woe is me” stories and if you don’t offer to help them (usually financially) you are an unfeeling person.

Lest we forget the ones that post things that are sensitive in nature looking to start a fight, I cannot count the number of times I have seen “silence is acceptance” or “if you aren’t speaking out against this you are a supporter of all that is wrong”. 

Give me a break.

We are corrupted into believing everything that is reported whether it is right or wrong.

There are people out there who truly believe that they don’t have to follow the rules, that they deserve to have everything given to them.

And there are those that won’t lift a finger to help someone in need.

Listen up – it is time we take control of our lives back.

We do not need to listen to the masses when they say that we can’t pray.

We can ignore the ones who tell us that we are wrong for believing.

We have the right to teach our children our history, no matter how painful it is to maybe keep them from making the same mistakes that we did.

We are in control of our own circumstances.

Hate your job? Find a new one!  It takes time and perseverance, but it can be done.

Can’t pay your bills?  Take a hard look at your spending habits, if you get a $7 cup of coffee every day that is $210 in a month – I bet that would pay one of your bills.

Put on your new self, be the change, take charge of your circumstances instead of letting your circumstances control you.
